UAE doctors see more insomnia caused by Covid-19 – The National
Doctors in the UAE have reported an increase in the number of people suffering from insomnia and anxiety-related sleeping problems because of Covid-19.
Dr Hady Jerdak, a sleep specialist at Harley Street Medical Centre, said nearly 30 per cent of his patients come to him with “coronasomnia” — sleep problems related to stress caused by the pandemic.
Insomnia is a feature of many people suffering from long Covid, which is thought to affect as many as 100 million people worldwide.
